Crosland Air Filters - any views

[M4cruiser]

Crosland wasn't my first choice brand of air filter, but it was allegedly the only one on the shelf that day, so I took it. Subsequent Google-ing shows that Crosland is closely linked with the factor (Euro) so I'm a bit suspicious...

Then I had a definite "wtf" moment when I went to fit it and found it was too thin, only by a millimetre or so, and similarly height and width a teeny bit smaller than the one I took out, but this allowed the new filter to rattle in the casing and so allow unfiltered air through the gap round the edges and up into the throttle body! It's definitely the right numbered filter for the model, it's just a cheap build.

Anyone else have any experiences of Crosland?
